I've mentioned my bike in previous posts. I've finally come to terms with selling it. It's listed on Craigslist in Boston. It is in exceptional condition. Original photos of build are on flickr. Search on my username, ahurvitz. Happy to work out shipping. Happy to answer any questions. Here is the text of the listing and here is the link:
Rivendell Atlantis 54.5, Exc. Cond., Waterford frame - bicycles - by owner - bike sale - craigslist <https://boston.craigslist.org/nwb/bik/d/groton-rivendell-atlantis-545-exc-cond/7659865379.html> *I am selling my Waterford Atlantis, purchased new in 2008, and in exceptional condition. It's a 54.5 cm frame (I'm 5'8"). I worked directly with Grant when building it out. I have taken great care of it and can't imagine a finer example. The frame and paint look virtually new. The only blemish occurred when the chain jumped and slightly nicked the chainstay. I subsequently wrapped it in cloth tape and shellacked it. (The nick can't be seen and the chainstay looks cool.) The bike draws compliments wherever I ride and looks great with Honjo fenders. The components are as follows:Nitto: Noodle bars, Technomic stem, Crystal Fellow seatpost, and rear rackDura Ace Bar End shifters, Deore XT Rear Derailleur, IRD front derailleur, Shimano Headset, Chainrings and CassetteDeore XT hubs on Mavic Rims (built by Harris Cyclery), Schwalbe Marathon tiresSugino crank and KMC chainPaul Cantilever brakes with Cane Creek leversHonjo Hammered fendersBrooks leather seatVelo Orange pedals2 bottle cagesBrass bell and Rivendell Kevan BagBottle of Testor's 2135Bars are wrapped with cloth tape and multi-colored twine and shellacked with Bulls-Eye Amber shellac. Fender bolts are stylized (see picture) I am happy to arrange shipping. I know this is a lot of money. I have invested a lot of money and I'm not sure there is a finer Waterford Atlantis anywhere. Happy to answer any questions.* Thanks, Alan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
